2012 christmas + winter scrapbooking paper collections roundup

Thursday, November 1, 2012

11/2/2012 Update: Thanks to Ruth for reminding me to include I {Lowe} Scrap in the mix! I've added their Christmas collection, which you'll find at Freckled Fawn and Sodalicious, to the list.

It's time for one of my all-time favorite posts to write each year- the annual roundup of all the new Christmas and Winter scrapbooking collections that have been introduced at or since the CHA Summer show! Like the Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Fall roundup posted in September, this post shows a representative selection of papers and embellishments from each collection all in one spot, allowing you to scroll through (or search for your favorite company) and see everything at a glance. Everything from vintage to whimsical to modern to graphic is represented here, and I've updated the included links to online stores and added Simon Says Stamp in this time around!

A few things to note before getting started:

Collections are listed under company headings, which are in alphabetical order. Some companies have several Christmas and Winter collections, so if, for example, you're looking for Echo Park's offerings, you'll find them all grouped together in the Echo Park section.

As you can probably guess, not everything from every collection is shown. Sometimes I'm able to find a single graphic on a manufacturer blog that shows several items at once, but most of the time I just choose three or so as a representation. You can see the whole collection by clicking through the links (more on that in the next item).

The Two Peas in a Bucket and Scrapbook.com links will take you straight to a page that shows everything that store carries in that specific collection. Simon Says Stamp's interface doesn't allow category linking, so I've linked to the largest paper pad I could find in the store for each collection. In many cases Simon Says Stamp will stock a 12x12 collection pack, but for a few lines they carry only the smaller paper pads, so that's what I've linked up.

DCWV has not yet published images online of their Christmas and Winter stacks for JoAnn and Michaels stores, but I've embedded their videos showing all of these new stacks under the DCWV heading. DCWV has also shipped these collections to me, and I'll be taking a closer look at each of them starting next week, so stay tuned for that!

My brain is positively buzzing with Christmas fun after assembling this post, and I hope it does the same for you. Please chime in on the comments and let me know what your favorite is!
